I looked across the bar and saw a man dancing away by himself, with a single drumstick. It was at this moment I knew that I had to meet him.

We talked and drove for hours. We listened to good music. We laughed. Once he dropped me off back at my dorm. I called my grandma and let her know the news. I have found the man I was going to marry. He just didn't know it yet.

My soon-to-be-wife is my favorite travel companion. So far we have traveled to Ireland, Vegas, West Virginia, and Florida together. Each trip holds so many memories I hold close. I look forward to many more adventures.

They say buying a house is stressful and scary. Having Addie by my side made it a lot less stressful and scary. Knowing that we get to spend every day together for the rest of our lives is something I have looked forward to for three years. I am so grateful it is finally here.
